@YafahEdelman A song that was solely created by less than 2000 total words of AI prompting and no additional audio recording/engineering goes #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 (the artist can upload any recordings they did for prior songs to the AI)
Voice is the new computer interface. It makes technology disappear and creates magical experiences.
To all my coworkers who spent years listening to me talking to my computer. This is it. It’s your turn now.
@mdotbrown Best of 5 is to the worse team’s advantage. They’ll all take that, you’re just helping them. Not against this, just noting. Apologies if you were already factoring this in
@BennettRayford@RealTopTenLists@simspron86522@DKThomp Bradford & Simspron, in other sports, especially football, the seeding LEGIT matters in that if you took the same teams and scrambled the seeding, the odds of victory for each team would meaningfully change
ChatGPT is now available in CarPlay.
The voice mode you know, now available on-the-go.
Rolling out to iPhone users running iOS 26.4+ where CarPlay is supported.
Kelsey Plum becomes the first female pro athlete to launch a verified AI “digital twin” that fans can voice call to interact with her, per @FastCompany
“It’s where we are in society… I think you’re either gonna get with it or get lost.”
NVIDIA just dropped PersonaPlex-7B 🤯

Today, we're announcing significant new traction in our voice AI research and development partnerships.
Over the past few months, we’ve quietly been expanding our focus on providing frontier voice AI training data to research labs looking to imbue emotion understanding and cutting edge expressivity into their foundation models.
We believe some of the most exciting possibilities for deeper speech and emotion understanding will come to fruition this year. By training today’s frontier models to understand the nuances voice interaction—rife with subtle tones of frustration or satisfaction, “aha” moments, chuckles, sighs, backchannels, and interruptions—we believe that labs will unlock new possibilities for voice AI to become a primary interface within many applications.
In our experience working with leading research labs and AI-first enterprises, a consistent pattern we’ve seen is a greater need for high-quality datasets and evaluation pipelines than for new algorithms or architectures. Researchers spend up to 80% of their time curating the data they need to diagnose model issues, fix failure modes, and improve model behavior.
That’s why Hume is now focused on building the data and evaluation infrastructure needed to train next-generation voice models across industry. With the right training, we hope that deeper voice understanding and empathy can be translated not just into more efficient interfaces but into better alignment of AI with human well-being.
